• Work closely with Design, Fit, Colour, Raw Materials, and Quality to ensure each product meets technical and aesthetic requirements.
• Guarantee fit accuracy and consistency across all Seamless products.

• Serve as the primary point of contact for all technical queries on your products.
• Ensure all products meet relevant safety, regulatory, and compliance requirements.
• Verify that each product meets its performance and sustainability claims through testing and documentation.
• Work closely with vendors to ensure technical specifications, quality expectations, and timelines are met.
• Identify and resolve development challenges promptly to avoid delays.
• Own the accuracy of all technical documentation — including tech packs, sealed samples, testing results, and development records.
• Provide clear, regular updates on development status, risks, and key decisions to your manager and stakeholders.

WHAT YOU'LL NEED:

• Strong knowledge of garment construction, fit, and technical development, specifically across Seamless products and technology.
• Proven experience managing product development critical paths and delivering products on time.
• Solid technical understanding of related development processes such as colour, raw materials, and quality standards.
• Familiarity with sustainability practices, compliance standards, and safety regulations.
• Experience working collaboratively with Design, Sourcing, Production, Quality, and other cross‐functional partners.
• Excellent organisational skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities and tight deadlines.
• Strong analytical and critical‐thinking skills, with exceptional attention to detail.
• Clear communication skills and the ability to provide accurate status reporting.
• Proficiency with product development tools and systems (e.g., PLM, Excel, CAD).

PREFERRED EXPERIENCE:
